Anglia Print Sustainability Actions

Environmental policy and verification

Our environmental policy outlines our public commitment to protecting the environment and continual improvement. There is a lot of Greenwash around environmental (and ethical) issues and we set ourselves apart in our approach: we are honest and transparent and everything we do and say is externally and independently verified. Anglia Print is one of a very small number of printing companies with a transparent Ethical Business Policy.

Renewable electricity and heating

Our electricity is purchased from Ecotricity, on 100% from renewable resources tariff. Electricity is used for lighting and powering equipment. Low energy lighting is in place and our heating system recycles generated heat. No gas or heating oil is used in our factory.

Solar panels installed

Since May 2022 we have been running on our new Solax Solar System. This is a 46 x 400w PV panel array giving us 18.4KWh of possible energy production which is enough to run Anglia Print and charge our batteries to 17.4KWh to keep office equipment (Phones, Servers) running through the night.

CD recycling scheme

In 2006, the company started a CD recycling scheme in the form of a free collection service within a 20-mile radius of its factory. This meant that all parts of the CD and case were separated and stored until enough volume was produced for recycling.
